Fw: List question


Actually guys... it's a FEATURE. ;-) Yes, my friends, it's intended.

Whenever an email to your address bounces more than 3 times or so in a day,
you get dropped. Why are you not notified? Well, because what use is it to
send an email when email bounces?

Reasons why email bounces:

1. Your server thinks you don't exist cause it's temporarily misconfigured.
2. You are over quota and out of space.

#2 is by far the biggest reason emails bounce -- because users often have a
max megabyte limit. No surprise it would get filled up with days and days and
days of 100's of emails each day.

If you stop getting emails, the web page would be a good place to check!
